Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Non-exempt employees receive hourly wages; they are subject to wage and hour laws, i.e. overtime pay; usually applies to non-professional employees.
That is somewhat right, and somewhat wrong, ita. I am a salaried employee, but I am also non-exempt, so that I do get overtime. In California epecially, most people are considered non-exempt under the laws and regs.
I will see if I can dig up a synopis, but it might not be until tonight.
I'm all tsunami'd out. I'm not giving any tsunami money. I wouldn't give the red cross a dime, anyway.I'm not tsunami'd out, but only because I stopped reading/watching the coverage, almost immediately. Every couple of days, I peek at a headline and that's it.
The following is not me saying you should give anything. You're a very generous person, and my whole previous conversation was about celebrities. I'm tired of hearing seeing them sing (or whatever) to raise money from common suckers like us. Write the big check yourselves, I say. That said, if you wanted to give, there are a ton of organizations other than the Red Cross, and many with really good track records of getting what's needed to those in need.
Since we had to suffer through Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous
Dude. Aaron Spelling didn't break your remote control finger.
We have only ourselves to blame. It's our money they're spending.
Dude. Aaron Spelling didn't break your remote control finger.Funny you mention him, because that may be the only episode of that show I ever caught. In fact, I'm not sure I learned about Spelling on LSotR&F. But I remember, I think when I was in college, that he was buying a home of a celebrity for something like $45 million TO TEAR IT DOWN AND BUILD A GAJILLION DOLLAR "HOME". IT WAS TO PUKE. I may have been taking a lot of poverty related courses (both soc. and econ) at the time.
Ooh, Netflix has this new thing. Or maybe it isn't just new but I only just noticed it where you can add something to your queue and then move it right to the top!

Speaking of new things, the elevator told me that TiVoToGo was being launched. You'll be able to easily transport it to your laptop, or ultimatley, your hand held. I immediately imagined Scola doing this.
Should we worry about these conversations with the elevator, Hec?

Amen. Once I balance my checkbook and figure out what I can budget to give, I'm thinking of donating to UNICEF. Even if my particular $ doesn't go immediately to disaster relief, I approve of the uses the organization puts it to in general in the affected area. (And so far as I know, they aren't run by people who superstitiously think I'm unclean and possessed of blood that can magically bypass screening tests to spread God's righteous wrathillness among the faithful.)

I feel the same way about Doctors Without Borders.

It just tells me stuff. I don't talk back. That'd be crazy.
